ERO Report
It is our great pleasure to share with our school community our Education Review Office (ERO) report which has now been published on the ERO website.
The ERO report provides an external evaluation of the school's performance. The overwhelming positive report acknowledges the excellent education provided to the students at Somerville Intermediate School.
Below are a few excerpts from the report:
School planning and conditions to support high quality education for learners are driving excellent school performance.
Learners benefit from excellent quality teaching practice that improves progress and achievement in reading, writing and mathematics.
A strategic and experienced leadership team ensure school planning and conditions support high expectations for all learners.
Structured mathematics, reading and writing are consistently well taught across the school, by highly skilled teachers, with a deep understanding of the learners’ needs.
Learners have rich opportunities to learn across the breadth and depth of the curriculum.
Learners have regular opportunities to reflect on their own learning, and to improve their own skills through a broad range of curricular activities, including mātauranga Māori activities.
The school successfully promotes learners’ engagement, wellbeing and inclusion.
While the report is succinct it captures all aspects of school life and legislative requirements.
The full report is also available on the School Board page of our website.
